Genes affected
BBS12 (HGNC:26648): (Bardet-Biedl syndrome 12) The protein encoded by this gene is part of a complex that is involved in membrane trafficking. The encoded protein is a molecular chaperone that aids in protein folding upon ATP hydrolysis. This protein also plays a role in adipocyte differentiation. Defects in this gene are a cause of Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 12. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesJul 20, 2023The BBS12 c.34_36delAGA variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion (p.Arg12del). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0044% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/4-123663076-AAAG-A). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
Bardet-Biedl syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2020This variant, c.34_36del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the BBS12 protein (p.Arg12del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs752885483, ExAC 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with BBS12-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 444639). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
